PULPIT ROCK & PINNACLE LOOP NIGHT TIME HIKE
9.2 Miles
1,259 Feet Elevation Combined

DESCRIPTION
Expect a mostly gradual 1000'+ ascent and then a mostly flat trail from the Pinnacle to the Pulpit. From the Pulpit the trail is flat, and then there's a 1000'+ descent back to the parking area.

This popular loop offers incredible night time views of Lehigh Valley and the surrounding ridges, with moderate difficulty.

Located just an 1 hour & 15 mins drive from Philadelphia.

Although mostly moderate, there are some fairly steep sections on the initial climb that may be difficult for some hikers. The trail will be very rocky, so good footwear is recommended.

LOTS OF SMALL ROCK SCRAMBLING ON THIS HIKE!

PARKING

  • We will gather in the parking lot marked on Google Maps and other GPS devices as Pinnacle Trail Head, AT Access.
